joan expressed her helplessness to tell the whole truth . why? what was the old saying she mentioned in this context
Answers
Joan expressed her inability to tell the whole truth because she knew that the counsellors will not understand her truth.
Explanation:
'The Trial' is a part of the play entitled 'Saint Joan' written by George Bernard Shaw based on the story of Joan of Arc.
Scene 6 of the play 'Saint Joan', deals with the trial of Joan, when she was brought before the council of the Inquisitor, the Bishop of Beauvais, and the Church officials. The council asks her to reveal the truth to which she replies that she can not tell them the whole truth as she is not permitted from God to speak the whole truth to them. She asserts that 'God does not allow the whole truth to be told.' She remarks that even if she would tell them the truth, they will not understand it.
Thhe old saying that she mentions in this context is' he who tells too
much truth is sure to be hanged.' She is aaserting that the person who expresses the whole truth is bound to be hanged and so is she.
